Romney should talk about this at his rallies. Liberals do not want to give up the fat and the sugar! And neither do I!
Yes. The concept is called “a compelling government interest”. Post Obamacare there will be a compelling government interest in almost every aspect of our lives.
If youre feeling hungry, after you eat, youve been eating too many carbs.

Or you might just be a teenage boy.
No. Extortion is ‘’pay up or else’’. This is more like a’ kick back’’.
I see this as “you follow our rules” or “you don’t get dollars”. Isn’t that extortion?
This sounds like a prison protest...The inmates of an police state institution making demands on their keepers. Are we in America still? Why are people puting their children in police state custody and calling it school?
It's the dark side and two very evil words: Federal funds
The new guidelines are LOW FAT. The protein portions are insanely low for growing males.
When I was a young mom, my son’s doctor told me that he’d found something that was an effective ‘cure’ for boys with ADD.
He said that young males (around age 7-9) became naturally more active for a few years in order to thicken bone and build muscle in preparation for their teenage growth spurt.
He said that it felt like an all-over need to ‘stretch’ that never went away. The only thing that relieved that feeling was movement.
He started having moms send their boys out for a run, jumping jacks, pushups, etc for 20-30 minutes before school. He also recommended a diet high in protein, calcium and magnesium to promote muscle and bone growth.
I did this with my son while he was homeschooling. During the day, I’d notice him squirming and losing concentration and I’d send him out to run laps around the building. (Always a fun, positive thing. Not punitive at all.)
After I did this, it went from a four hour battle of wills to get him to do his math to 30-60 minutes of getting it done and moving on.
That’s exactly right. I don’t have a problem with what these kids are doing, but their efforts would probably be better directed elsewhere — like having that school lunch program shut down entirely.
Now that I think about it, you’re right. It’s a kick-back. If anyone is getting extorted, it’s the taxpayer...
Classic extortion : “Nice place ya got here pal. Be a shame if it burnt down now, wouldn’t ya say? I want 500 a week or it does and you with it, get me?’’
